According to Legacy, the Metro Subwoofer is the smallest sub they have ever produced (16"). They say it was designed to augment systems with woofers 10" and smaller. But don't let its small size fool you as this little beast pumps an amazing 117dB of output. How is this possible, you may ask? This sub takes advantage of the piston area that, according to Legacy, only a 15" down-firing radiator can provide and the power behind this accomplishment is an amplifier capable of pumping 500 watts to an efficient long throw 12" subwoofer. Legacy says that this driver offers the highest Xmax available in its efficiency class and a patented Aura motor structure. This sub provides variable level control, continuous phase adjustment and a wide range of crossover frequencies. Take a look at the attached pictures and specifications for more details. What do you say? Is this sub worthy of your consideration?
